The lyrics I can remember are as follows:

Give a little bit of love and you'll get it back
Give a little bit of pain, you've got it on tap.
Every little thing that you say or do
Give a little bit of love it'll come back to you.

It was performed by a female artist and I think it's an 80s song. I'd appreciate it if you could tell me the name of the artist and the title of the song.

Many thanks

I now have a problem because the answers are split between Joanna Zimmer and Marcella Detroit! Thanks for your answers - I suppose it must be one of them!
P.S. It definitely wasn't Supertramp - I refuse to believe their singer was female!

I Believe

by Marcella Detroit


Now everybody
Has a right to be living their lives
Oh but we're a long long way, a long way
From paradise
If there is freedom
Tell me why everybody
Wants to fight
Oh cause we're a long long way, a long way
From paradise

You might be strong enough
You might be rich enough
You might be blind enough
To push it all aside

No matter what you do
It keeps coming back to me and you

Give a little bit of love
And you'll get it back
Give a little bit of pain
You're caught in a trap
For every little thing that
You say or do
Give a little bit of love
And it will come back to you

You got your reasons
But are you sure they're reasons to be right
Oh cause we're a long long way, a long way
From paradise
Don't let your anger or your fear become your suicide
Cause we're a long long way, a long way
From paradise

You must be strong enough
We must be great enough
We've waited long enough
Now it's time to say
Goodbye
We got some rules to burn
So many lessons to be learned

Give a little bit of love
And you'll get it back
Give a little bit of pain
You're caught in a trap
For every little thing that
You say or do
Give a little bit of love
And it will come back to you

Give a little bit of love
And you'll get it back
Give a little bit of pain
You're caught in a trap
For every little thing that
You say or do
Give a little bit of love
And it will come back to you

Now I believe
In peace and harmony
You've got to believe in love
Before you can be free
So take a hand
Everybody make a friend
I want you to believe in love
Like I believe
Ah..............

Give a little bit of love
And you'll get it back
Give a little bit of pain
You're caught in a trap
For every little thing that
You say or do
Give a little bit of love
And it will come back to you
Yeah.............

Every little thing that
You say or do
Give a little bit of love
And it will come back to you

Have a nice day :)

This it?

Joana Zimmer
I Believe (Give a Little Bit)

Now everybody,
Has a right to be living their lives.
Oh...but we'd a long, long way a long way from paradise.
If there was freedom tell me why everybody wants to fight.
Oh...'cause we're a long, long way a long way from paradise.

You might be strong enough,
You might be rich enough,
You might be blind enough:
To push it all aside.

No matter what you do,
It keeps come back to me and you.

Refrain:
Give a little bit of love and you get it back,
Give a little bit of pain, you caught in a trap.
For every little thing that you say or do, give a little bit of love and it´ll come back to you.

You got your reasons,
But are you sure they're reasons to be right?
Oh...'cause we'd a long, long way a long way from paradise.

We must be strong enough,
We must be brave enough,
We waited long enough now it´s time to say goodbye.

We got some rules to ban,
To let the lies and truth belong.

Refrain x 2

Ohhhh....

I believe in peace and harmony,
You got to believe in love
Before you can be free
So take her hand
Everybody make a friend
I want you to believe in love
Like I believe...

Give a little bit of love...love
a little bit of pain...pain
give a little bit of love...a little bit of love

Refrain x 2

Album: "My Innermost" (2005)
Now everybody,
Has a right to be living their lives...
Oh but we'd a long, long way long way from paradise.
If there was freedom
tell me why everybody wants to fight...
Oh 'cause we'd a long,
long way a long way from paradise.

You might be strong enough,
You might be rich enough,
You might be blind enough:
To push it all outside.

No matter what you do,
it keeps come back
to me and you.

Chorus:
Give a little bit of love
and you get it back,
Give a little bit of pain,
you call it a track.
For every little thing
that you say or do
Give a little bit of love
and it'll come back to you.

You got you reasons,
But are you sure
their reasons to be right?...
Oh 'cause we'd a long,
long way a long way from paradise.

We must be strong enough,
We must be brade enough,
We waited long enough
Now it´s time to say goodbye.

We got some rules to band,
To let the lies and truth belong.

[Chorus]

Ohhhh....

I believe in peace and harmony,
You got to believe in love
Before you can be free
So take her hand
Everybody make a friend
I want you to believe in love
Like I believe

Give a little bit of love...love
a little bit of pain...pain
give a little bit of love...
a little bit of love

Ohhh...
